Not to be confused with Operation Abyss: New Tokyo Legacy, Arc System Works has announced that Damascus Gear: Operation Tokyo will release for the PlayStation Vita on March 24 in North and South America, priced at $14.99. A European launch date wasn’t confirmed, but it will eventually happen.

A Mech-Action RPG, Damascus Gear puts you into the pilot’s seat of a giant robot so you can punch, shoot, and destroy hordes of evil robots hell-bent on destroying mankind.

Here’s what Arc System Works had to say about the game:

As one of the members of FREYA, the robot-fightin’-est outfit on the planet, you’ll use your GEAR (good robot) to beat the ever-loving snot out of the RAGE (bad robots, anagram of “GEAR”). And these mechanics just wouldn’t be RPG-inspired if they didn’t involve picking parts off the metallic corpses of your defeated foes and bolting them onto your own rattling, death-dealing hulk of steel! So naturally you can do that too.

For features, you’ll find the mission-based story mode, arena-mode to fight against AI, different parts to make your GEARS match your fighting style, and DLC with new armor, weapons, and missions.
